this is getting scary everytime i go to bed i hear a loud bang like some on shooting a gun or banging something really hard but i want to know whats happening and whats the cause of it and if anyone eles has the same problem as well

Hey! Don't be scared, it's okay, so many people have tinnitus yet only 1 in every 10 (Americans) seek help for it. You should definitely see a medical specialist if you're able to-- especially if it's something that happened suddenly and abruptly. Good news is-- you aren't alone and people usually habituate!

I personally have never heard of tinnitus sounding like that, so to me that's very interesting. In the mean time can you put on a fan or something at night when you sleep? I am sure it will still be noticeable, but it definitely won't be as startling and noticeable as it typically is. (Think of a candle in a dark room. Only thing you notice. A candle outdoors-- isn't as noticeable anymore! Think of the tinnitus as that candle.)

Have you read about exploding head syndrome? I think that is what you have because it is associated with sleep. Have you tried lying down when you are NOT going to sleep? I would read up on exploding head syndrome - don't panic though. If that is it, then it is harmless, it's just scary.
